The weather, the weekend, the cats

elusivekI don't really have anything particularly insightful today LOL
The weather has been terrible. This is likely the 6th day I'm wearing rain boots to work. But it's like the curse of the umbrella: you bring the umbrella, it doesn't rain. You forget the umbrella, it pours. I'm having the same curse with the rain boots. I see the skies are dark and cloudy and most definitely going to rain, so I wear the boots. But I get all the way to work and it hasn't rained much.
The irony of it is, just yesterday, when I thought "it's probably gonna pour buckets, but since it's not, I might as well just get to work quickly!" So I don the boots, think about the rain coat for a second and decide "nah!" And off I went. 3 minutes later it pours and while I had rain boots but the wind was crazy and the rain heavy so the umbrella wasn't much use: I got wet all the same.
So today I have the raincoat with me but it's only a light drizzle. Still have my boots though.
Tomorrow. I have no actual plans. But I'd like to do as I've been doing before, go to Starbucks in the morning, sit there with a coffee and do whatever (read a book, work on the finance log for the shelter I volunteer for, or, whatever). And then in the afternoon mosey over to the mall as I need new underthings; it's been a while (try years) since I last got underthings. They're past their prime.
I've also noticed, since the lockdown, as we've been forced to stay home, Sai Lup hasn't been to his physiotherapy, and now the physiotherapy centre has closed down even, so that's one chunk of expense off. The dogs also haven't been to the vet for their monthly cartophren shots, they don't look any worse for wear, and that's another big expense off me. I can't help with the physio if it's closed down, but the dogs should really get back on those shots, so I should probably take them for that too.
Oh, and here's the cats Harley and Nutmeg having fun on my parents' bed. Harley especially loves it when the sheets are being changed and everything's white like him. Don't know why Nutmeg's got her tail puffed up.
